Per i conti “sopravvenienze passive” e “sopravvenienze attive” controllare la documentazione, la corretta contabilizzazione, l’inerenza e la competenza della rilevazione.
Per ogni ulteriore conto ritenuto di volta in volta significativo verificare gli importi, la documentazione, la corretta contabilizzazione, l’inerenza, la competenza del costo/ricavo.
Verificare gli importi, la documentazione, la corretta contabilizzazione, l’inerenza, la competenza delle Note di Credito.
Above are three examples where the word "competenza" is used. I am having trouble understanding the meaning in this context. I have had a good look at all entries in the KudoZ relating to this term, and I have an inkling that it could be "accruals", but as I'm not 100% sure I wanted to ask for confirmation and am happy to assign points! Can anyone help?

timing [matching] of recognition
While we are talking about accrual (as opposed to cash) accounting, the specific intent here is WHEN the item is recognised.
In the second paragraph, however, I would talk about matching...that is the "matching" of costs and revenues.

Note from asker:
| So for the third would you say "the timing of Credit Notes" or something similar? |
